you earlier posted......
I had to smile at the portion of the story where the airline admits that
the
passenger calmed down as soon as he was reprimanded by the flight crew

and then you just wrote.....
At the point where the guy was reprimanded by the flight crew and calmed
down,
the "security" issue was extinguished.

That's a point I forgot to query you on -- please indicate for me the
passage in the article that indicates that the passenger calmed down when
reprimanded, and also where the airline "admits" same. Note: I do not
accept the Defense Attorney's statement to the press as fact. My reading of
the article is that statements of those onboard the craft seem to indicate
that the passenger became *more* obstreperous when challenged by the cabin
crew, and only acted normally when parked beside an armed air marshall.
